Quote From: mrgrt56 I don't understand how this man gained so much fame and respect, when he rose to those by lying and perpetrating a fraud? Why is it okay that the African Americans can spew hatred about anyone and none of them are taken to task? Did the media go balistic and criticize Kanye West after his outburst on TV after hurricaine Katrina? No, they replayed it as a condemnation of the Bush administration? An African American child calling a white overweight child fat is as hurtful to the white child as the "N" word to the African American. I doubt if any uproar would be made about the child being called fat.
Are you talking about Paul Mooney? Anyways, you asked why it is okay that black folks can spew hatred and and are not taken to task. You have to show me examples of this for me to fully address it. Kanye West got fined somewhere around $150,000.00 just for saying that George Bush doesn't care about black people. That statement was true. I could go on and on proving this but I won't because you would not believe me anyways. Did Kanye make a racist remark? No. He made a remark regarding race. That does not make him racist at all. If you really want to know the truth, Hurricane Katrina wasn't that bad of a storm. The levy broke, which caused the floods. The levy broke because it was bombed. Look it up. You Tube it. People were left to die while Bush did nothing. Canada offered support but Bush refused. Look it up. As far as the N word being equal to calling a white child fat, I can only shake my head and laugh. You obviously know nothing about black people and I don't care how many black people you have met. You are ignorant. Again, I can go on and on talking about black history, black people, racism, but you would not believe me anyways so I won't bother. Speaking as a black man I can tell you that we are the most forgiving race of people you will ever meet. Did we seek revenge after slavery was over and attempt to kill all white people? No, but white people sure deserved it. For the most part, we are friendly to you. How many times have you heard about black people randomly killing whites? Now reverse that and ask the same question about whites killing blacks. How many police have harassed, beaten, abused, or killed black people? Probably none that you know of but I have heard many instances. Look at Sean Bell. Look up Jena 6. If you did then you would know that things are not equal at all, so please don't cry in these blogs about how bad white people have it. Your people own the world yet that isn't good enough for you. You need to open your eyes, and ask questions.
